Tough Week

This past week has been one for the record books! I really thought I might loose it at least two times! HA.HA.HA. It actually started last week, when we took James Henry to the Dr to find out he had a respiratory virus. That was on Monday, and on Tuesday Luke Harris started running fever. By Friday we were all fever free, and then Saturday morning gets here and Lucy started running fever. We went to after hours on Saturday, and Sunday and they thought that she just had the same virus that the boys had. On Monday of this week, we went to see Dr Edwards. They tested her for the RSV virus, and sure enough thats what it was! Thats right RSV and she is not even five weeks old! SCARY! Thank goodness it was not very bad yet, and we were able to come home with breathing treatments four times a day, and we did not have to go to the hospital.

When we got home, James Henry's nose was still running like a water hose, and Luke Harris was complaining with his ear hurting. My mom was coming up to help with the kiddos, and told me to go ahead and make them appointments to get checked out just in case! So glad that I did that, because little did I know, James Henry and Luke Harris both had ear infections, and James Henry has the RSV virus also, and we are doing breathing treatments with him as well! UGH!!!! When it rains it pours at the Robinson house!

Thank the good Lord, the kids are taking their breathing treatments so well! James Henry calls it his smoke mask, and pretends he is a fireman. I will post some pictures later.

Since all of this has happened, Luke and I have had to make a hard decision about the boys and school. We have decided to pull them out of MMO until next year. Dr Edwards has talked with us about how low Baby Lucy's immune system will be after having this RSV, and we feel like we can not risk the boys bringing home anything else for her to catch! I can only pray that we have done the right thing for our little family!

Here are some pictures of the boys from their last party at school.




James Henry and his friend Hannah, he talks about her all the time!

Luke Harris and his "buddy" Judson.
He was telling me not to take his picture! He is getting to be so sassy!

Luke Harris was saying cheese and then said, " I really have cheese in my mouth Mama!"
